World on Fire: How Exporting Free Market Democracy Breeds Ethnic Hatred and Global Instability by Amy Chua is a provocative and thought-provoking analysis of how the spread of free-market capitalism and democratic ideals can unintentionally fuel ethnic tensions and political unrest in developing nations. Drawing on real-world examples from Asia, Africa, Eastern Europe, and Latin America, Chua argues that empowering market-dominant minorities within fragile democracies often leads to resentment, violence, and instability. The book challenges conventional wisdom about globalization and democratization, offering a sobering look at their unintended consequences.
